"They were also presented 50 recommendations from the National American Competitiveness Council, a tri-national working group of the SPP comprised of some 30 chief executives from some of the continent's largest companies, to speed people and goods safely across borders, harmonize trade regulations and improve energy security and production by 2010."
Doesn't that sound a lot like a treaty to you, and doesn't a treaty require Congressional approval?

It sounds like a lot of big business was involved in these meetings. Whenever big business is more informed than the public, I ask myself, what does this really mean? It can't be all that good for the little guy, these things never are for the people, they are for the good of big business. If they have a treaty, across borders, that means that the prices will be set by business for all three countries. We would lose our ability to make deals as a separate country. All three nations would be involved. I'm not buying it as anything good for me!

No. Its about making North America more competitive in the global marketplace. Calm down.

Well news companies compress it into a form so that people can digest it, there will be more to it. I think it is a good idea.
